Much love!
You should do The Conversation 1974 directed by Francis Ford Coppola.
"As vulgar as that diss was, that was really funny"
Roman's character in a nutshell.
The proverbial toddler with an erection. Haha I hated typing that.
Oooooh now we're talkin
*scheming lmfao
I'm so glad it's Succession! You always talk about it in other shows but the camera definitely feels like it's a part of the cast in this. It plays a lot like Arrested Development.
Another reactor said Succession was like a mix of Arrested Development and Game of Thrones.
Brilliant 😅
Every episode of this show will leave you with positive vibes and feeling happy.
Just kidding. You're gonna feel anxious and disgusted.
But also awestruck by the acting and writing.
Perfect way to describe the Succession experience
You're right! It was shot on 35mm Kodak Vision3 500T 5219 (Arricam LT).
Awesome!! Thanks for the specifics!
Sickest tv theme song of all time 🔥
Tom and Greg have the best chemistry in the show lmao
If you want to make a Tomlet, you gotta break some Gregs
@@DefenestrateYourselfTook the words right out of my mouth
*worst
IM SO HAPPY YOURE DOING SUCCESSION!!! My favorite show of the past decade for sure it’s hilarious and heartbreaking! You’re gonna love it!
Hope you enjoy!! Happy to add another show into the mix!
You are going to really like this one. It gets better as you get to know the characters.
Or worse depending on how you look it 😂😂😂
Love this show so much.
Ahh hell yes. This is another prestige televisual masterpiece. Been looking forward to this🍿🍿🍿
Happy to hear!! Enjoy my friend! 👌🏽
Holy shit, you're reacting to my 3 favorite shows of the last years (Mr Robot, Succession and Better Call Saul) at the same time, amazing :D
Game of Thrones and Arrested Development had a child and this masterpiece came out
This show has it all, fantastic script, amazing production, cast all on form, editing and cinematography at its best…enjoy !!
This is gonna be a fun ride. Succession only gets better and by the time it ends it had quickly climbed to maybe the best prestige show since the Sopranos.
Calling Tom psychotic...you have no idea
Really? Shiv is far worse to me but I love seeing other people's feelings toward characters, hell it's the reason I watch reactions in the first place
I was pulling for wire or the sopranos but this show is GREAT too. Super stoked to see you experience all these amazing shows.
god i know right, picking between succession and sopranos in the vote was like choosing my favorite child lmfao absolutely wrenching
Re: camerawork: Jesse Armstrong - creator/writer - pitched to HBO - the last of the major networks and the only one that wanted it - that the show needed 'Dogma 95' camerawork, which helped sell it. I love that detail. Adam McKay wanted the gig from that, he'd just finished The Big Short. The idea for this whole show dates back to '08. Jesse just couldn't get anywhere with it, doubted it, in fact. Wasn't until '16 when his US agent made him see what it could become. And re: the theme, Nicholas Britell, the composer said - if memory serves - it's all about duality, which is what the show has; elements of absurdity, but underneath there's a deep grandeur - there are human absurdities in the show, but then there's the darker side that is business, power, greed. Also, the classical piano part represents the Roy family as a whole, but the hip-hop beats over it is Kendall. There's a lot of notes being played over chords that aren't even in the scale of that chord, so the piece as a whole, like the family, is just off kilter, dissonant. Great reaction as per though, J!
Yoooo I literally said to myself yesterday “I can’t wait until James finally does Succession” and here we fkn goooo. So damn excited for this 😍
This show can make signing a paper in a board meeting as intense and epic as anything in game of thrones.
I’m actually so happy you are doing this, succession is probably one of the best shows to be created in the past 5 years.
Omg 🥰 I’m so excited to see you do Succession!!! You’re right that sometimes it leans into worlds we don’t understand, both the wealth and also the business jargon, but trust the process! I think the show does a great job making the impact and suspense accessible even if you don’t understand what the hell they’re talking about 🤣 it’s really smooth writing!
So happy to see you are watching this…you are going to love…and hate these characters. Written so well. Have fun!
Yes it was shot on film, the whole series! Adam McKay who directed the pilot and is series executive producer fought to shoot the whole series on film.
I'm so happy we're getting Successsion and The Bear w/ you! Let's gooo
Oh man I've been waiting for this moment, can't wait to hear your thoughts on it because you're gonna witness a rollercoaster of emotions throughout the four seasons of this masterpiece of a show.
BANGER SHOW! You’re in for a ride
The editing, acting and the music in this show! 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼
Hope you di The Wire next!
Tom and Greg Against the World is the spinoff we need.
My top 5 shows are Daredevil, Better Call Saul, The Bear, Succession, and Sherlock so this is so dope. I’ve said it before but this channel is awesome, keep it up James.
This is another one that really reels you in,like Mr. Robot. That camera work, the talent on scene, the score, the writing. The different world they live in is so absurd, but the problems are mostly everyone problems that are so believable. The camera draws reactions out of you with the zooms, shakes, focus and follows, serious props to the camera crew. It's a masterclass, start to finish, enjoy the game!
YESSSSSSSSSSSS!!! So far, you've been picking some of my favorite shows to watch! Succession is one I've been wanting to see for awhile! You're gonna love this one. Some of the best character writing I've seen on television.
Yesss! One of my favourites, so happy you're reacting to it!
WOW WHAT??? SUCCESSION LETS GOOO james has been feeding us good stuff lately 😭😭
LFG! Welcome to It’s Always Sunny with billionaires
You’re definitely in for a treat. This show is brilliant
Oh HELL yeah, never clicked so fast!! So hyped for you to watch this
YAAAAASSSS so excited to see your reaction to this show. The camera is such a significant character in this show, it's brilliantly written and acted too. So excited!
YES JAMES, thx for reacting to this show. Enjoy man, it's incredible !!
Great show but you should watch "severance" if you love mr robot. Its an amazing concept.
I plan too :)
great shout
James.... let's fucking go dude. You're the GOAT. This is exactly what should be happening. Fuck. Yes.
Couldn't be more excited for these reactions!
Yesssss!! Been waiting for you to react to this show!
I was so happy to see the notification of you beginning succession. It’s my favourite show and four seasons of solid tv and features one of the best performances ever thanks to Jeremy Strong. Plus all the other powerful performances just offer such deep character studies which the UA-cam channel just an observation discusses. Hope you enjoy it :) .
I'm so happy you're starting this show! I found your channel when I watched your Breaking Bad reactions, and you soon became my favorite reaction channel. Then you started Mr. Robot and now Succession, all my favorite shows! Can't wait for you to get into this. Much love
omg i cannot BELIEVE you're reacting to always sunny, mr robot, better call saul AND succession!!! literally all my favourite shows
It IS shot on film! I just learned that earlier today, so funny you bring that up!
The music in this show is one of the best
Otro de mis shows preferidos!! Sos un genio! Gracias!!
YESSS!!! I’m SO excited you’re doing this!!! My fave show of all time. #TeamRoman .. I am on board 🥳🖤!
Oh man I’m so excited for you!!!!!
really killing it w these show choices 🙏
Love that more people are doing succession recently. Was the best show on tv the past few years
I was SO late to getting to Succession that anyone I know has long finished it. I'm just finishing the first season so this will be fun!
Succession is a full Shakespearean comedic drama, truly brilliant! the camerawork really adds so much to the perspective/feeling of the story!
all bangers, all the time
It is shot on film! The entire series is
Yesssssss finally!! You are going to love this, it is ELITE television
Yea! I’ve been waiting for this
Best show of the last decade, no competition
yes, it was shot on film!
James starting succession?? lets go!!
One great thing about this show is even if you don't understand anything about the business world you can still understand the stakes of every move just based on the performances - I never felt lost in this show no matter how far out of my wheel-house they went.
Oh man this is a surprise I just watched this last year! Definitely some of the best tv I’ve seen in years can’t wait for it all! ❤
I think the show is actually shot on film!
Also the show takes a lot of inspiration from Shakespeare, and the Murdoch family, the family that founded Fox
A lot of the lines in the show are actually improvisation
Oh shit this is crazy you're watching 3 of my favourite shows rn (BCS, Mr robot, succession) TY for these amazing vids
I feel that family could have not signed the NDA and sell the story to other media conglomerates for far more...but i guess that brings all the attention and threats from the Roys.
Glad Succession won. It’s one of the few shows that starts out well but really does get better and better each season and then end it correctly and not pushing too long. The writing is 💯🔥
LETS GOOOO. The. Best. Show. You should research how they shot it. They gave them free range to shoot whatever they wanted
One of the best shows ever, Season 4 is up there with the greatest seasons ever made. Like you said 'you get thrown right into it'; this show does 'exposition' like nothing else, I believe there's no flashbacks in the entire show, it all happens organically.
You're gonna love it!
YESSS SUCCESSION!! gonna sub to the patreon fs now
Omg, Succession ! I kinda hope you continue !
You’re gonna love this show, especially the last 3 seasons
Gonna watch this one along with u. BRB gotta do my homework 🤘
ive been manifesting this for a couple months now
Holy shit you are way ahead on Patreon than most other reactors! :O
I was so hooked on Succession
Oh shit. Here we go. This show is a TRIP.
Wow you are in for an real treat! 😎 it doesnt get better then this.
I do recommend watching the episode breakdown by the directors and cast at the end of most episodes if you’re watching this on Max. From your background I think you will enjoy those because they talk about some of their thinking and it’s usually not very long like 2-3 mins.
I think the episode name is also a reference to the Danish film Festen (The Celebration). I highly recommend watching that as well.. one of the best films I've seen and this show also seems to have taken a lot of inspiration from it.
So happy you are watching this show. Other than Atlanta this is the only recent show I have enjoyed in a while
I'm so happy you're doing this show. One of my favorites! I don't get the hate the show got. The writing is top tier
Edit: Succession has the best opening theme song. Even better than IASIP, Curb and The Office
Glad we decided to watch peak
Yay! One of the best series ever!!!
Succession lets gooooo
Maybe my favorite dialogues in television
Oh man, can't wait for all the reactions to the episodes! One of my fav ever!
Hope you know this is based on Rupert Murdoch, even some of the events within the family. You'll love this. Logan is one hell of a character, but Roman... Amazing!
Writer myself, glad you started this one, will comment for sure too. Cheers 😊
it is shot on film!
Hooollyy sssshh, didnt expect you gonna react to succession😂
Wooooooow comienza un hermoso viaje. La mejor serie que se a emitido el último tiempo.
Yes! I am so happy you're watching this!
Hope you enjoyed it!
LETS GO BRO!!!!
This show is 🔥..theme song is top notch
here we go
YES! It begins…..
Tom Wamsgans, one of the greatest TV characters ever written
Favourite reactor reacting to favourite show? Massive win
